QUALITY ASSURANCE SURVEILLANCE PLAN

FOR

DEFENSE POLICY REVIEW INITIATIVE PLANNING GROUP

INFRASTRUCTURE AND ENTERPRISE PLANNING SERVICES

DPRI Okinawa

INTRODUCTION: This Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP) has been developed to evaluate contractor actions while implementing this Performance Work Statement (PWS). It is designed to provide an effective surveillance method of monitoring contractor performance for each listed objective in the PWS in the contract.

The QASP provides a systematic method to evaluate the services the contractor is required to furnish. It is based on the premise the Government desires to maintain a quality standard in supporting, providing recommendations, addressing planning and budgetary needs, and that a service contract to provide the service is the best means of achieving that objective.

The contractor, and not the Government, is responsible for management and quality control actions to meet the terms of the contract. The role of the Government is quality assurance to ensure contract standards are achieved.

In this contract, the work plan and the monthly status report are the drivers for quality products. The contractor is required to develop a comprehensive program of activities for all tasks for each management area. The first major step to ensuring a “self-correcting” contract is to ensure that the approved work plan provides the measures needed to lead the contractor to success. Once the work plan is approved, careful application of the process and standards presented in the remainder of this document will ensure a robust quality assurance program.

SURVEILLANCE: The Government Contracting Officer’s Representatives (CORs) will monitor the contractor’s work or will receive complaints directly from the designated Government Point of Contact (POC) for that specific management area.

STANDARD: Timeliness of the reports and plans shall not exceed the thresholds cited above for each performance standard. The COR shall notify the Contracting Officer for appropriate action in accordance with FAR 52.212-4, Contract Terms and Conditions-Commercial Items (May 1997) or the appropriate Inspection of Services clause, if any of the above service areas exceed the thresholds.

The Performance Requirements Summary (PRS) in Table 1 outlines the Government’s performance requirements for this task order.

CLAUSES INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE

CLAUSES INCORPORATED BY FULL TEXT

52.209-5 CERTIFICATION REGARDING RESPONSIBILITY MATTERS (APR 2010)

(a)(1) The Offeror certifies, to the best of its knowledge and belief, that-

(i) The Offeror and/or any of its Principals-

(A) Are ( ) are not ( ) presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, or declared ineligible for the award of contracts by any Federal agency;

(B) Have ( ) have not ( ), within a three-year period preceding this offer, been convicted of or had a civil judgment rendered against them for: commission of fraud or a criminal offense in connection with obtaining, attempting to obtain, or performing a public (Federal, State, or local) contract or subcontract; violation of Federal or State antitrust statutes relating to the submission of offers; or commission of embezzlement, theft, forgery, bribery, falsification or destruction of records, making false statements, tax evasion, violating Federal criminal tax laws, or receiving stolen property (if offeror checks “have”, the offeror shall also see 52.209-7, if included in this solicitation); and

(C) Are ( ) are not ( ) presently indicted for, or otherwise criminally or civilly charged by a governmental entity with, commission of any of the offenses enumerated in paragraph (a)(1)(i)(B) of this provision.; and

(D) Have , have not , within a three-year period preceding this offer, been notified of any delinquent Federal taxes in an amount that exceeds $3,000 for which the liability remains unsatisfied.

(1) Federal taxes are considered delinquent if both of the following criteria apply:

(i) The tax liability is finally determined. The liability is finally determined if it has been assessed. A liability is not finally determined if there is a pending administrative or judicial challenge. In the case of a judicial challenge to the liability, the liability is not finally determined until all judicial appeal rights have been exhausted.

(ii) The taxpayer is delinquent in making payment. A taxpayer is delinquent if the taxpayer has failed to pay the tax liability when full payment was due and required. A taxpayer is not delinquent in cases where enforced collection action is precluded.

(2) Examples. (i) The taxpayer has received a statutory notice of deficiency, under I.R.C. Sec. 6212, which entitles the taxpayer to seek Tax Court review of a proposed tax deficiency. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek Tax Court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appeal rights.

(ii) The IRS has filed a notice of Federal tax lien with respect to an assessed tax liability, and the taxpayer has been issued a notice under I.R.C. Sec. 6320 entitling the taxpayer to request a hearing with the IRS Office of Appeals contesting the lien filing, and to further appeal to the Tax Court if the IRS determines to sustain the lien filing. In the course of the hearing, the taxpayer is entitled to contest the underlying tax liability because the taxpayer has had no prior opportunity to contest the liability. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek tax court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appeal rights.

(iii) The taxpayer has entered into an installment agreement pursuant to I.R.C. Sec. 6159. The taxpayer is making timely payments and is in full compliance with the agreement terms. The taxpayer is not delinquent because the taxpayer is not currently required to make full payment.

(iv) The taxpayer has filed for bankruptcy protection. The taxpayer is not delinquent because enforced collection action is stayed under 11 U.S.C. 362 (the Bankruptcy Code).

(ii) The Offeror has ( ) has not ( ), within a three-year period preceding this offer, had one or more contracts terminated for default by any Federal agency.

(2) Principal, for the purposes of this certification, means an officer, director, owner, partner, or a person having primary management or supervisory responsibilities within a business entity (e.g., general manager; plant manager; head of a division or business segment; and similar positions).

(b) The Offeror shall provide immediate written notice to the Contracting Officer if, at any time prior to contract award, the Offeror learns that its certification was erroneous when submitted or has become erroneous by reason of changed circumstances.

(c) A certification that any of the items in paragraph (a) of this provision exists will not necessarily result in withholding of an award under this solicitation. However, the certification will be considered in connection with a determination of the Offeror's responsibility. Failure of the Offeror to furnish a certification or provide such additional information as requested by the Contracting Officer may render the Offeror nonresponsible.

(d) Nothing contained in the foregoing shall be construed to require establishment of a system of records in order to render, in good faith, the certification required by paragraph (a) of this provision. The knowledge and information of an Offeror is not required to exceed that which is normally possessed by a prudent person in the ordinary course of business dealings.

(e) The certification in paragraph (a) of this provision is a material representation of fact upon which reliance was placed when making award. If it is later determined that the Offeror knowingly rendered an erroneous certification, in addition to other remedies available to the Government, the Contracting Officer may terminate the contract resulting from this solicitation for default.

(End of provision)

52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (JAN 1999)

(a) Basis of award will be determined by means of an integrated assessment of each offer in terms of the following evaluation factors. Award will be made to the responsive, responsible Offeror whose offer conforming to the requirements of the solicitation, offers the Best Value to the Government, price and other non-price factors considered. Best value is determined by performing a tradeoff evaluation in terms of the below listed evaluation factors for award.

1) Technical Approach

Subfactor A) Task Understanding Subfactor B) Staffing Approach and Labor Mix Qualifications/Certifications/Experience Subfactor C) Processes and Procedures/ Quality Control 2). Past Performance: Six Past Performance subfactors

(a) Quality of Service,

(b) Timely Performance,

(c) Business Relations,

(d) Management Effectiveness,

(e) Compliance with Environmental, Safety, Health, and Security Requirements, and

(f) Offeror’s Contractual Considerations

3) Price

Pricing of CLINs will be evaluated by the Contracting Officer for price reasonableness using price analysis techniques in the FAR. Option pricing will be evaluated and included as a part of evaluations, and it shall include the six month extension of services clause.

The Government intends to evaluate proposals and contemplates award based on initial proposals without discussions. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary.

(b) The Government will make an integrated assessment best value award decision considering an Offeror’s technical proposal, past performance, and the price for the requirement. Technical Approach, Past Performance, and Price are the only evaluation factors for award. For the non-price factors (Technical Approach and Past Performance), Technical Approach is more important than Past Performance. Of the three Technical Approach subfactors: (a) Task Understanding, (b) Staffing Approach and Labor Mix Qualifications/Certifications/ Experience, and (c) Processes and Procedures/Quality Control, Subfactor (a) is more important than Subfactor (b) and Subfactor (c). Technical Approach Subfactor (b) and Subfactor (c) are of equal importance. The six Past Performance subfactors are of equal importance. The non-price factors combined are more important than Price. Offerors must receive a combined overall rating of “Acceptable” or higher for the non-price factors of Technical and Past Performance to be considered for award.

(c) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer's specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.

(End of provision)
